uncharted 2/3 would have been impossible on last gen consoles


Of course they would have been possible. They just wouldn't have looked as nice.

If you're talking about graphics then that would apple to all current gen games because the previous machines didn't have the specs to render HD. But if you strip away the graphics Uncharted is really just a cover shooter with some scripted events.


if you know anything about the techinical wonders that uncharted 2 gave birth to you would know why it wouldnt be possible on last gen consoles. and uncharted 3 expanded on those techinical innovations. uncharted 3 is probably the most techincally advanced game ever created, but apperantly you know nothing about the game. read these two articles and you will understand why

Yeah, Uncharted renders some pretty stuff. But go play Tomb Raider Legends and tell me an Uncharted game is impossible on the PS2 or Xbox.


you cleary didnt read the articles, if you did you would know why they couldnt be done on last gen consoles. the DOT(Dynamic Objects Traversal System) system is still something that only uncharted 2/3 (and GoW to an extent) have managed to do

Oh I read them, but I didn't find anything that so amazing that it could be done elsewhere. The DOT system you mentioned is just what Naughty Dog came up with to solve a problem. Other games have characters/players moving around on moving objects. Halo puts players on giant Scarab walking things and Gears of War puts players on big truck tank things.

It's not impossible on other systems or in other games. The difference is that Naughty Dog wanted it more and put the effort into pulling the technical trickery to get it done.

With all do respect it's like you think the PS3 is some kind of miracle super computer.
